Cooking on the Light Side – By: Dr Thienna Ho, Ph D – Book Review

Everyone wants to look good and feel good. “Cooking on the Light Side: Smart Recipes for Bright Skin and Vitality” is a revolutionary cookbook that combines health, nutrition, and beauty in one package. Dr. Thiênna Ho writes in a truly modern style, not like The Joy of Cooking that Mom had. Discover the new and improved cookbook that is in tune with the needs of the contemporary society we live in. It’s a visual feast for all your senses. The photographs are stunning, the recipes are simple to understand, and the tips are actually very helpful.

Learn from the world’s leading expert in skincare nutritional health. Thiênna Ho, Ph.D., has created a diet with foods rich in sulfur to improve beauty, health and well-being. I discovered a lot of information regarding sulfur; it is an essential mineral that provides the body with many building blocks. She writes about all the benefits, including the “detoxifying” effects on cells in the human body. She further explains in her book that sulfur helps in the production of healthy skin and reduces fine lines and wrinkles. It has also been linked to possible anti-cancer effects. Due to the oxygenation of cells and tissues, which creates an aerobic environment, cancer cells cannot survive. There are many other sulfur benefits mentioned in this remarkable cookbook and it additionally provides a long list of all sulfur-rich vegetables.

I have found Dr. Thiênna Ho’s recipes to be deliciously succulent and satisfyingly nutritious without tasting wholesome. There are so many wonderful recipes to choose from. The coconut and banana shirataki porridge would make a wonderful breakfast, can’t wait to try. Anything with coconut catches my eye like coconut chicken and bean soup or coconut white bean cake. Although coconut is not the predominant ingredient in her recipes, she is diverse in what she chooses for her recipes. There is a long list of healthy recipes categorized into breakfasts, salads, soups, sandwiches, dinners, stalk breads, cakes, pies and pastries. Dr. Thiênna Ho has also included her 30-day diet plan: Experience renewed vigor and amazing skin in just 30 days! Plus, revealed for the very first time: How Bruce Lee’s diet helped him become a martial arts legend. I found the recipe index very useful, as did the menu suggestions.

Thiênna Ho carefully chose the ingredients for flavor, nutrition and ease of preparation, resulting in very appealing starters. She gives you wonderful advice throughout her book, such as choosing less ripe fruit over more ripe one, and choosing raw or uncooked fruit whenever possible. Be sure to avoid dark dark green leaves. Dr. Thiênna Ho recommends steaming as a healthy alternative to baking and can be a healthy substitute instead of frying, broiling or broiling a sausage for example.

My congratulations go to Dr. Thiênna Ho for creating “Cooking on the Light Side: Smart Recipes for Bright Skin and Vitality” and giving us the alternative to a healthier diet, not only using high sulfur foods, but also using pure unprocessed ingredients. Recipes are simple and all ingredients can be purchased at any local grocery store if they are not already in your pantry. Thank you Dr Thiênna Ho. Thank you for your recipe book. Dr. Thiênna Ho was able to break four Guinness World Records after 40 years. She brings her physical stamina to her diet, which has not only helped her succeed in life, but made her a healthier and more vibrant person. I encourage everyone to read this book and reap the benefits. What a delicious read!
